4.3.2 Recovery of OVM for SPARC Environments

When using an OVM for SPARC environment as a spare server, use the following procedure to perform recovery.

1. Configure the same domain configuration as the factory default. Execute the following Resource Orchestrator command on XSCF.

   XSCF> setdomainconfig -p 0 -c default <RETURN>

2. Configure "true" for "auto boot" in the domain control, and "disk" for "boot-device".

   XSCF> setpparparam -y -p 0 -s bootscript 'setenv auto-boot? true <RETURN>
   setenv boot-device Disk name' <RETURN>

3. Configure "off" for Autoboot (Guest Domain) of the physical partition operation mode on XSCF.

   XSCF> setpparmode -p 0 -m guestboot=off <RETURN>

4. Check the zoning and host affinity configurations for spare servers using the zoning and host affinity information displayed in "WWN Settings" of the [Resource Details] tab.

5. Use the storageadm zone info command to confirm the zoning and host affinity configurations.

6. Use the storageadm zone add/delete command to confirm the zoning of spare servers and host affinity configurations.

   For details on how to use the storageadm zone command, refer to the "ETERNUS SF Storage Cruiser Operation Guide".

7. Start the OS of the control domain.

8. When using the ZFS storage pool in the control domain, import it.

   When "18.5.2 ZFS Storage Pool Definition Files [Solaris] [Solaris Zones] [OVM for SPARC]" in the "User's Guide VE" has already been configured using the spare server of the control domain, it is not necessary to automatically import it.

   1. Check the status of the ZFS storage pool.

      primary# zpool list <RETURN>

   2. Import the target ZFS storage pool.

      primary# zpool import ZFS storage pool name <RETURN>

9. Restore all domain configurations on the system from the XML files of the domain configuration saved before server switchover.

   primary# ldm init-system -r -i XML domain configuration information <RETURN>

10. Configure the physical I/O device allocated to the control domain and the IO domain.

    The physical I/O device may be configured in both the control domain and the IO domain in the OVM specifications. Reconfigure the allocation of the physical I/O device.

11. Configure the port number used for the console of the domain.

    The port number of the console configured in the guest domain may be invalid in the OVM specifications.
    Configure the port number used for the console of the domain.

12. When an IO domain is used, the IO domain starts before startup of the guest domain.

13. When using the ZFS storage pool in the guest domain, import it.

    When "18.5.2 ZFS Storage Pool Definition Files [Solaris] [Solaris Zones] [OVM for SPARC]" in the "User's Guide VE" has already been configured using the spare server of the guest domain, it is not necessary to automatically import it.

    1. Log in to the guest domain.

    2. Check the status of the ZFS storage pool.

       # zpool list <RETURN>

    3. Import the target ZFS storage pool.

       # zpool import ZFS storage pool name <RETURN>

14. When using the guest domain as a Solaris Zone, restore the non-global zone.

    1. Check the status of the non-global zone.

       # zoneadm list -vc <RETURN>

    2. If necessary, execute "attach" and "boot" to start the non-global zones.

15. Save the configuration information for the service processor. Saving is not possible when configuration information with the same name has already been saved in the service processor.

    # ldm add-spconfig Configuration information name <RETURN>
